Low fuel levelRefuelling
When the low fuel level is reached, t
his  warning  lamp  comes  on, Â
a
ccompanied  by  an  audible  signal.
The
Â
message  "LO  FUEL"  is  displayed  in  place Â
o
f
Â
the
Â
range.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In
Â
certain
 driving  conditions  and  depending  on Â
t
he
Â
engine,  the  distance  which  can  be  travelled Â
w
ith
Â
the
Â
fuel  remaining  may  be  less  than Â
3
0Â miles
Â
(50 Â km). To
 refuel  in  complete  safety:
F
Y
ou must stop the engine and switch off
the ignition (ignition in "LOCK" position
or "OFF" mode) .
F
Â
P
ull  the  control  on  the  lower  dashboard, Â
d
river's  side,  to  release  the  filler  flap.
F
Â
O
pen  the  fuel  filler  flap.
If
Â
you  run  out  of  fuel,  the  emission Â
c
ontrol  system  warning  lamp  may  come Â
o
n
Â
in  the  instrument  panel.  It  will  go  off Â
a
utomatically  after  the  engine  has  been Â
s
tarted  a  few  times. Refuelling
 must  only  be  done  with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched off ( ignition s
witch in the "LOCK" position or " OFF"
 mode).
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Additions of  fuel  must  be  of  at  least  5  litres  to Â
b
e  registered  by  the  fuel  gauge.
A
 label  on  the  inside  of  the  flap  reminds  you Â
w
hich  type  of  fuel  to  use.
There
 may  be  an  inrush  of  air  when  removing Â
t
he  filler  cap.  This  vacuum  is  per fectly  normal Â
a
nd  results  from  the  sealing  of  the  fuel  system.

Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet,  as  certain  areas  of  the  engine Â
m
ay  be  extremely  hot  (risk  of  burns)  and Â
t
he  cooling  fan  could  start  at  any  time Â
(
even  with  the  ignition  off).
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried out  with  the  dipstick,  located  under Â
t
he  bonnet.  For  the  position  of  the Â
d
ipstick,  refer  to  the  under-bonnet Â
v
iew  on  a  previous  page.
Checking with dipstick
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
I f  a  level  drops  significantly,  have  the  corresponding  system  checked  by  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
To
 ensure  the  accuracy  of  the  reading, Â
y
our  vehicle  must  be  on  a  level Â
s
ur face,  with  the  engine  off  for  at  least Â
3
0Â minutes.
It
 is  normal  to  top  up  the  oil  level  between Â
t
wo  services  (or  oil  changes).  CITROËN Â
r
ecommends  that  you  check  the  level,  and  top Â
u
p  if  necessary,  every  3  000  miles  (5  000  km). If
 you  find  that  the  oil  level  is  above  the  A  mark Â
o
r below the B Â mark, Â do not star t the engine.
-
Â
I
f  the  level  is  above  the  MAX
Â
mark  (risk Â
o
f  engine  damage),  contact  a  CITROËN Â
d
ealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
-
Â
I
f  the  level  is  below  the  MIN
Â
mark, Â you Â
m
ust  top-up  the  engine  oil.
Refer
 to  the  under-bonnet  view  for  the  location Â
o
f  the  dipstick  on  your  vehicle.
F
Â
T
ake  the  dipstick  by  its  coloured  grip  and Â
p
ull  it  out  completely.
F
Â
W
ith  the  end  of  the  dipstick  with  a  clean Â
a
nd  non-fluffy  cloth.
F
Â
R
efit  the  dipstick  and  push  it  fully  down, Â
t
hen  pull  it  out  again  for  a  visual  check  of Â
t
he  oil  level:  the  level  must  be  between  the Â
t
wo  marks  A  and  B.

General points
Lead-acid starter batteries
Batteries contain harmful substances such  as  sulphuric  acid  and  lead.
They
 must  be  disposed  of  in Â
a
ccordance  with  regulations  and  must Â
n
ot,  in  any  circumstances,  be  discarded Â
w
ith  household  waste.
Take
 used  remote  control  batteries  and Â
v
ehicle batteries to a special collection
point. Protect
 your  eyes  and  face  before  h
andling  the  battery.
All
 operations  on  the  battery  must  be Â
c
arried  out  in  a  well  ventilated  area  and Â
a
way  from  naked  flames  and  sources Â
o
f  sparks,  so  as  to  avoid  the  risk  of Â
e
xplosion  or  fire.
Wash
 your  hands  after wards.
